Is the Boss one of the best written female characters in gaming? She has all the traits for a Mary sue>Mother of special forces>Gave birth in battle>Literally nicknamed "The boss">Has proficiency with several weapons>Helped the allies win WW2 with the cobras>Has a special CQC gimmick that can beat you easilyBut a lot of the epic soldier stuff isn't what makes her great, but rather the emotional impact she has over snake (and the player by proxy)Why can't other developers write characters like her anymore?
>>722734348she's not hot so nobody cares, not even her fans
>>722734591Eva is supposed to be the hot one yet I don't remember anyone talking about her either desu
I legitimately have no idea what the fuck the point of this character was or why we were supposed to care about Naked Snake's relationship with her. The Big Boss trilogy is the gayest element of Metal Gear. Prequelitis is a cancer.
>>722734348I never felt a thing about this characterIt's just taking a character that would be an eyerolling cliche as an older man and directly transplanting it onto a woman with no alterations
Huey did nothing wrong.
>>722734827Yeah I think this hits the nail on the head. It was subversive back then and a surprise "OMG BOSS IS A GIRRLLLL????" back then but that's kinda about it.
>>722734591>>722734638There isn't a single hot character in mgs.That's why thete is barely any porn of it.>hurr durr wat bout mei ling, meryl, sniper wolf, Naomi, the beauties from mgs4?Exactly. No one fucking cares about them. Even when Kojima tried to make an overally sexualized character like Quiet, people just saw her and moved on
>>722734348>GUYS SHE'S NOT GOONER BAIT we get it you're a castrated eunuch zoomie groomed by tumblrinas
>>722735123lol, it’s time to come out homo
>>722734864>Some of you guys are alright>Don't come to Mother Base tomorrowI miss all the MGS threads we had before Phantom Pain was actually released. Good times.
>>722734348she's kind of a dumbass with no agency who follows orders, and is okay with being murdered during the mission to cover it up even though she doesn't benefit it in one bitt.There's little stopping ehr and Snake just running off into the night and going freelance. Which is what Big Boss does anyways.
>>722734591Says you. I want a mommy boss gf to give me long speeches & CQC my snake.
>>722734348The only memorable thing I can remember coming from her is how nations who were once allies can become enemies in time. Literally everything else about her is boring.
>>722735123You're a dummy
>>722734348Why did they make her sexy in the remake?
>>722734348100% carried by shinkawa's character designs and the gameplay mechanics, her actual character is paper thin despite having a giant monologue explaining it. the headcanon, fanon and speculation people do is more compelling than what's strictly in the work itself.that said i would play a cobras prequel, not everything has to be super deep.
>>722735560i think you might be significantly more retarded than i can convey in words if you dont understand she followed orders to prevent even greater catastrophe.>she could just run awayyoure such a stupid little bitch, jesus christ>become a career soldier on purpose>become the best to literally ever do it>decide to randomly disobey orders ???????????? holy fuck youre a retard. The entire concept of Big Boss becoming a war criminal in protest is lost on you gg fucking idiot
>>722735464yea everyone is a kill, because vidya is dead too
>>722734348The whole gave birth in battle thing is retarded, even for Kojima. But I would really like a game based on her impact on the Cuban Missile Crisis.
>>722738357there's a lot of early cold war spy stuff that's seriously underrepresented in mediabay of pigs, operation aviary in korea
>>722734348>wears a pure white suit to the jungleIs she retarded? It is only effective in 1 specific location
>>722735123>Even when Kojima tried to make an overally sexualized character like Quiet, people just saw her and moved onYou might genuinely be retarded.
>>722738756>Is she retarded? It is only effective in 1 specific locationWell anon, tell me, where do you end up fighting the boss? Seems like it worked well enough for her.
>>722738357thats the real reason jimmy was fired, they could never make that cutscene
>>722734348>best written>mary sueyou're an idiot
>>722739151>jimmy?
